Happy Holidays!

To celebrate the winter season, we’ve added a few merry gifts for you to enjoy:

• Change the lock sound on your vehicle to a cheery jingle bell. Go to Settings > Vehicle > Access on the center display and select Jingle.
• Enjoy the twinkling red and green lights on the front and rear light bars when you lock your vehicle.
• Admire a jolly snowman and festive pine trees on the center display when your vehicle is in Snow mode.

Google Cast and YouTube Now Available

You can now use Google Cast and YouTube in your vehicle while parked! Choose the new Video app from the bottom of the center display. Then choose the Google Cast or YouTube icon, and follow the on-screen instructions to get started. Everyone can preview Google Cast and YouTube before they become part of the Connect+ package at a later date.

NOTE

You can cast from most mobile apps that have Google Cast. We don’t support Netflix.

During the preview period, vehicles without a Connect+ subscription will have their vehicle hotspot activated to utilize Google Cast. However, to access other media apps without a Connect+ subscription, you must turn off the vehicle’s hotspot.

New Key Fob for Gen 2 Vehicles

The Gear Shop now offers a new key fob as a separate physical key for your vehicle. To start the pairing process on your smartphone, open the Rivian mobile app version 2.16 or later. Go to Drivers and keys and add the new key fob, or scan the QR code on the box containing your key fob.

NOTE

• Use the Rivian mobile app only. Setup isn’t available through the center display of the vehicle.
• Only the vehicle owner can add a new key fob.

Schedule Your Drive

You can now create schedules in the Climate Schedule panel on the center display or in the Rivian mobile app to precondition the vehicle cabin and the high voltage battery before planned drives. For example, in cold climates, you can schedule your vehicle to warm up before an anticipated departure time. Go to Fan > Schedule on the center display and create as many schedules as you need.

• Set the desired days and times of departure, cabin temperature, seat heat or ventilation, and steering wheel heat.
• If you have a Time-of-Use program with your utility company, you can opt to draw power directly from the grid outside the set Charge Schedule (if the vehicle is plugged into a charger).

NOTE

Due to Time-of-Use pricing, keeping the vehicle plugged in outside the Charge Schedule could potentially incur unexpected utility costs. Check with your utility company to understand the pricing model for your charging location.

Driver Assistance Improvements

We updated 360° visualizations that appear on the driver display to improve your in-vehicle experience:

• Improved orientation of stationary and parked cars.
• Created more accurate visualizations of stopped vehicles at traffic lights, cars parked in parking lots, and cars parked on the side of the road.
• Increased stability of visualized vehicles during a drive.
• Chevron icons in your lane are now used to show when the vehicle is slowing down for curves while Adaptive Cruise Control or Highway Assist is active.

Enhanced Lane Change on Command

Lane Change on Command can now accelerate the vehicle up to the set speed to locate a gap in the target lane before initiating a lane change. The blue path on the driver display shows a chevron animation to indicate when your vehicle is slowing down or accelerating to find a gap for Lane Change on Command. When the vehicle is slowing, the chevrons point toward the vehicle graphic on the driver display. When the vehicle is accelerating, the chevrons point away from the vehicle graphic.

Seat Climate Icon Enhancement

The vehicle now displays the Seat Climate icon with the Heat or Ventilate icon, depending on the outside temperature. Choose Seat Climate from the bottom of the center display to turn it on for the driver or front passenger seat.

• Improved acceleration response in All-Purpose drive mode for Tri-Motor vehicles.
• Fixed an issue that required a vehicle reset for Soft Sand mode to appear as a drive mode option.
• When your vehicle wakes from sleep in Rally or Drift mode, a new notification now appears on the center display to ask if you want to stay in the current drive mode or switch to All-Terrain mode.
• Improved the charge time for DC fast charging for vehicles with Large and Max pack batteries. (Thanks to Kyle from “Out of Spec” for the feedback!)
• Fixed a rare issue where AC charging stops before reaching the target.
• Fixed a rare issue that resulted in driver assistance features being unavailable after a charging session.

• Fixed a very rare issue that caused the percentage charged on the center display to not appear when charging.
• The status of your vehicle’s hazard lights is now retained when you restart the vehicle.
• Turn signals take priority over hazard lights in your vehicle. If both are activated, the turn signals override the hazards, which will reactivate once the turn is complete or the signal is canceled.
• Fixed a rare issue that caused a loss of phone key access until the mobile device is reset.
• Fixed a rare issue that caused false passive unlocks of the vehicle when in areas of low phone connectivity.
• Fixed a rare issue where key detection for drive is delayed.
• Fixed a rare issue that caused the mobile app to not respond to certain closure requests, including lock and unlock, front trunk, gear tunnel, tonneau, tailgate, and windows.
• Fixed an issue that prevented users from scheduling an over-the-air update using the Rivian mobile app.
• Fixed a rare issue that caused the vehicle’s position in the Navigation app to erroneously shift or jump when the vehicle is coming to a stop.
• Improved an issue that caused a Park Assist warning to be triggered when no obstacle is present.
• Fixed a very rare issue that could cause the vehicle to become unresponsive.
• Fixed a rare issue that caused Live Cam sessions to not start reliably.
